Coffee in Oakland: Subrosa Coffee

Latte

Subrosa Coffee is a tiny coffee shop on 40th between Webster and Shafter in the Temescal District of North Oakland. Located on the same block as Homeroom, everyone's favorite mac 'n' cheese restaurant, this hole-in-the-wall serves delicious Four Barrel Coffee any coffee fiend would love. I ordered a latte, which was as good as you can imagine.

Similar to Four Barrel's cafe in the Mission, they have a lovely parklet out front with space for people and bike parking alike. Here's a video that provides a peak into what Subrosa is like. Longtime readers will remember that Subrosa was where I shot Jerry Lin-Hsien Kung, an Oakland-based glass artist and fabricator, for an interview about his work.
